Disney or nahh ??

OK. so i have thought about this and i am finally going to do it. Basically every other day i will post an 'inspired outfit' so i will choose a character OR you could suggests some characters and i shall post an inspired outfit for your character. 

So i will do an inspired out fit today and it is obviously going to be inspired by a Disney character. But who ???

Well i have decided that it would be......PRINCESS RAPUNZEL.

SUMMER EDITION

So lets get started: 

TOP:

I found this purple vest top from New look. I think it really suits this outfit because. it's obviously purple and the little floral prints makes it look colourful and artsy.

SHORTS:

i found these shorts from new look AGAIN

SHOES:

I chose these shoes because in tangeled, Rapunzel is bare feet throughout the movie, BUT, if you went bare feet to the mall, school or anywhere else people will probably look at you. And as much as i love going barefoot on most days, sometimes we just have to wear shoes. I have a pair like these ones and they are SOOO comfortable. These shoes are from Top shop.

BAGS:

Rapunzel doesn't actually use a bag, but sometimes us girls NEED a bag with us. So i found this bad on tumblr. So i don't actually know where you can get a bag like these. But yeah i chose this bag because its very casual and it can carry a lot of stuff. 

  

ACCESSORIES:

I found this stud and chain earring and it reminded me about rapunzel.

If you're not into chains then you could just get some normal flower

earrings instead. I found this earring in Claire's

This floral crown is SO rapunzel. It shows your love for nature

and the colour shows the little trademarks of rapunzel.

I chose Rapunzel because i relate to her a lot, clothing wise. I like to wear purple, i am barefoot most of the time, and i like floral crowns. Some say i'm kinda like kit kat from the film 'about time' She is basically a hippie. (^-^)

 So anyways, i hope you liked this post and i will "see" you tomorrow

8 weird ways to cool down.

good morning everybody !! I hope your morning has gone well. Mine hasn't....basically i tried to make some tea for myself and i ended up pouring the hot water on my hand.After i recovered the injury with some handy toothpaste i then thought it would be a good idea to have some soup. So, i am now in my pantry (if you're american and you don't know what a pantry is, it's basically a cupboard where you keep your food) looking for some instant soup. So about half an hour has passed and my stomach is starting to sound like a whale on steroids but lets just ignore the grumbles for now.

8  ways to exterminate zits

Let's be honest, who hasn't had a zit in their life?? Exactly no one. The worst thing about zits is that it's hard to ignore and when you try to do something about it, it doesn't make it any better. When i try to cover/hide it with makeup it makes it even worse and when i try to pop it, i have a red rim around the pimple which makes it even more obvious. So i have found some great tips to use, which actually really does help. And these are some of them.

Egg whites

Apply egg whites to the zits and rinse off after 20 minutes.

Egg whites take the redness out of the zits surrounding area.

Honey

Use as facial mask. Stick but effective !! Honey protects the skin 

from getting any new zits, whilst protecting the popped zits from 

getting infections.

                                                                        

Tea tree oil

Dab a small amount on the effected area with a cotton ball or q-tip

and leave on overnight. This helps reduce the size and bacteria of 

the zit.

Garlic

Dilute garlic juice with water and leave on for a few minutes.

This will help with redness. It may not smell very nice

but at least it wont be as obvious to you and the people around you. 

                            

Toothpaste 

Got a big one!! Dab toothpaste (not the gel kind) on top of the

zit and leave it on overnight. The toothpaste will dry it making it smaller.

Baking soda

Mix water to create a paste. Use as facial and leave on for 10-20 minutes.

Aloe vera

Apply overnight.

                               

Lemon juice

Apply for 20 minutes.

I hope this imformation has been helpful to you

Tans

We have all wanted to have a great tan, especially now that it is summer. Tans are getting well known in western countries, but not so much in Asia. Having a nice tan can boost your confidence. To some people they might feel a bit more comfortable to wear a skirt or shorts when they have a nice bronzed goddess look.
But sometimes people can't get tans very easily, it might be because of the weather or maybe its just the kind of skin you have. Never the less you can still achieve a bronzed look with a few products and tips. Here are a few that i have found helpful to me.

Products:

This product is amazingly easy to use AND it gives you an amazing result. I bought this product nearly a year ago and i am hoping to purchase this product again. I chose the 'light' spray because i didnt want to look like a tangerine. It turns out that the 'Medium' spray is just as AMAZING. But i wasn't as daring enough to try it because i have a pinkish skin tone, so, i didn't want something too dramatic.

All you have to do is:

Spray the product onto dry skin and in about 5 seconds it will dry. Meaning that you wont get fake tan all over your furniture. Leave it on for an hour and then BAM you look like you have been to the south of France. It is truly amazing !!







If you CAN sunbathe. Use a sunscreen with a high spf. The lower the number (eg. 10-20), the faster you will be able to tan. You must never neglect your skin, if you are going to use the sun UV raise, you NEED to protect it. Take it this way would you rather spend a few minutes to protect your skin and have a lovely tan OR get bad sunburns, turn red, and maybe cause swelling to your body ??


Tips:

• Before fake tanning or sunbathing make sure you exfoliate. It wont do much harm if you don't but if you do your tan will last longer and look smoother and it wont be patchy.

• Last but not least, MAKE SURE YOU MOISTURIZE YOUR LIPS. Th elast thing you want is painful, crackled lips

I hope you have enjoyed this blog post !! :D

Fishtail braid

Today i will be teaching you how to give yourself or somebody else an edgy OR an elegant hairstyle known as the fishtail braid. I don't really know why it is known as the 'fishtail' braid, but it is probably because it looks like a fishes tail ??

                steps:

1.  The first thing you will need to do is select the amount of hair you want to Fishbraid (all/half/quarter)
2. Split the selected amount of hair into 2 pieces.
3. Now, imagine the left section is labelled 'A' and the right section is labelled with 'B' (or any preferred letter of your choice)
4. now, take a small section of hair from 'B' (make sure the section you pick is furthest away from section 'A')
5. once you have a small section of hair bring that section over 'B' and combine it with 'A' (when you are combining thestrands together, make sure you put the strand closest to section 'B' 
6. And now, we are going to do exactly the same thing. So instead of of bringing a small section from the back of 'B' to the front of 'A', you are going to take a small section from the back of 'A' and bringing it to the front of 'B'.
7. Repeat these steps all the way to the bottom of your hair. 
8. Now that you are near the bottom, secure it with a hair band (unlike the girl in the famous Tumblr pic)

 This hairstyle is amazingly beautiful but it can take a long time. Especially for me as my hair is very long (it is about an inch away from touching my bum.)

If my explanation has confused you, this diagram might be helpful if you incorporate the instructions with the drawings.

I hope this post has helped any of you out there who have been trying to "master the art" of fishtail braiding.

Stay tuned for my next blog post.

Byeee :D
